BOSTON, March 30, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- On June 2-3, Berklee Online will hold its sixth annual Berklee Onsite conference at the Berklee College of Music campus in Boston. Back for the first time since 2019 because of pandemic cancellations, Berklee Onsite 2023 is two days of workshops, panels, performances, and networking events, open to Berklee Online students and the music community at large.
"We're thrilled to be hosting Berklee Onsite again after a three-year hiatus due to the pandemic," said Berklee Online CEO and Cofounder Debbie Cavalier. "It's such an important part of our online students' experience to make the trip to Boston and spend time with the community that they're a part of. We have some incredible speakers and performers lined up and it's guaranteed to be a great time for everyone."
Early registration is open from now until Friday, April 14 at 11:59 PM ET at the discounted rate of $129. After April 14, the price will jump to $159 and registration will remain open until the first day of the conference on June 2.
In past years, Berklee Onsite has welcomed nearly 300 attendees representing close to 30 countries and 40 US states. The conference began as a way to give Berklee's online students the opportunity to meet their instructors and advisors in person while visiting the Berklee College of Music campus, but has since expanded to welcome anyone interested in attending.
